Posted Dec 20, 2017
The North Carolina A&T Aggies finished 12-0 for the first time in their 93-year history. They’re the only MEAC team to complete a full season unbeaten since the league was born in 1971. They’re the only HBCU program to be 12-0 in the Division I-AA/FCS era. They’ve made history. “Our thing all season was we were chasing excellence,” A&T coach Rod Broadway said.
